«Schmetterling und Taucherglocke» is the autobiography of Jean-Dominique Bauby, published by dtv in paperback (133 pages, in German).
After a stroke at age 43, Jean-Dominique Bauby, editor of Elle magazine, is left paralysed by locked-in syndrome. He can only communicate by blinking his left eye, with which he dictates this book letter by letter: a testimony of memories and imagination that turns his physical confinement into inner freedom.
Work originally published as «Le Scaphandre et le Papillon»; this German dtv edition carries the subtitle «Buch zum Film».
For readers of memoirs, biographies and testimonies about illness and disability.
Jean-Dominique Bauby was a French journalist, author and editor of the French fashion magazine Elle.
